Fish and Fishing Seasons in Scotland

Salmon and Sea Trout

The Salmon has generally returned in reasonable numbers in 2001, although not in any consistent pattern.Ask locally or use a gamefishing agency to organise your visit.

Season:- 15th January to 15th October with regional variations.

Brown Trout

Brown or 'wild ' trout fishing is sometimes overlooked - or indeed frowned upon by the keen salmon fisher, but remember that the wild brown species can offer great sport in spectacular surroundings. The size may not be great, but skill is required to tempt this wily quarry.

Season:- 15th March to 6th October.

There are too many waters to describe them all here, but I hope you can read this and be tempted to give fishing in Perthshire and the Trossachs a try.
